Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Sound speed as a source of the gravitational field in modified gravity

arXiv:2404.12373v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: In the context of $f(R,T)$ gravity and other modified theories of gravity, the knowledge of the first order variation of the trace $T$ of the energy-momentum tensor with respect to the metric is essential for an accurate characterization of the gravitational field. In this paper, by considering a paradigmatic example of a perfect fluid whose dynamics is described by a pure k-essence matter Lagrangian in $f(R,T)=R+\mathcal F(T)$ gravity, we show that the first order variation of the trace of the energy-momentum tensor cannot in general be determined from the proper density, proper pressure and 4-velocity of the fluid alone, and that the sound speed of the fluid can directly influence the dynamics of gravity. We also confirm that the second variation of the matter Lagrangian with respect to the metric should not in general be neglected. These results can be particularly relevant for cosmological studies of $f(R,T)$ gravity in which some of the material content of the Universe is modeled as a perfect fluid.
